this afternoon it dawned upon me that i had not yet gotten anything for my sister (betsy) and had completely forgotten to pick some lotion my mom had wanted up from the body shop. talk about stress! so, i decided that i would have to brave the crowds of the cerritos mall and go on a hunt for something that my sister would like. you see i have trouble shopping for her (actually i have trouble shopping for most people, but that's beside the point). our styles are VERY different and i don't always know what she would like or wear. she wears more trendy stuff, but i'm so not good with that whole thing. well, i hear her talking about how she needs to do some last minute shopping and i ask "for who?". she gives me this look that has the answer written all over it...letting me know it was me. actually this worked out great. we went together. i can't even remember the last time she and i went shopping together, let alone did anything one on one. it was kinda nice for a change....wouldn't want to do it often, but it was okay. the only thing is i hate shopping and she loves it, so that is why we don't ever go together. i only go when i have to (unless its with friends) and i just get in and get out. she likes to try things on and take her time. so, what we ended up doing was each picking out something we liked for the other one to buy so we would get exactly what we wanted. oh, and get this both things were on sale! i mean major on sale! my shirt that i got was originally $29.00, but that price tag had been marked down to $14.95 or else i wouldn't have even considered it. we got up to the register and it was actually $9.50 and her bag (originally $30.00) was only 8 bucks! now that's a deal! and now all my christmas shopping is done! sweet!
well, i better get to bed because i'm going hiking tomorrow with my cousin, kristi and my aunt...should be fun.
bye for now! :)
